NEW RULE FOR HUNG HarvWMM* May The Roseburg land office has re cently received the new rules and regulations governing the acqui i- tion of title to public lands under the timber and stone law. The gist of the new regulations is such that all such lands applied for since Nov. 30th 1908 will« be sold at appraised value. The examination must be based upon personal examination ol the lands within 30 days before the ap plication is filed, and it must show the quantity, variety and value of the timber, as estimated by the ap plicant, and also his estimate of the value of the land itself. At the time of filing such application a fee of $10 must be paid. Under the old regulations this fee was paid at time of proof. The method of ob taining title now is thus set forth: “Any qualified person may ob tain title under the timber and stone law by pertorming the following arts, (a) Personally examining the land desired; (b) presenting an applica tion and sworn statement, accom panied by a filing fee of $10; (c) dejxjsiling with the receiver the ap praised price of the land; (d) pub fishing notice of his application and proof; (e) making final proof.” If the government does not make an appraisal within nine months af ter the filing of the application for the land, the applicant may buy at his own appraisal by depositing the money within 30 days after the ex piration of the nine months and making final proof in due time. The proof after government appraisal of the land is a very simple matter, consisting merely of a short affidavit of the applicant. Proof upon the applicant’s appraisal is made upon the forms herefore used, consisting of testimony of the applicant and two advertised witnesses. A General Port Law. A letter from one of the members of the committee appointed by the Governor to prepare a bill for a general port law say that the com- mittee met lately in Portlmd .ind agreed upon a bill. There was present as members of the committee Francis H. Clarke of Marshfield, Peter I.oggie of North Bend, I. B. Cushman of Acme and J. Couch Fanders of Portland, Herman Wise, of Astoria, who was also appointed on the committee, did not appear. The committee was in session about five hours and the bill agreed upon is, in the main, the bill which was drawn by Mr. Flanders at the request of the Siuslaw people last fall. Only two minor changes were m ide in regard to the original bil*. One of the changes was in regard to boundaries The bill permits each district to establish its own boundaries provided it does not in clude territory that drains into some other navigable river. The second change is in the way of selecting the port commissioners in each district whj will have charge of the business pertaining to the harbor. The new bill provides that the first commission shall be ap pointed by the governor instead of by the circuit Judge as the bill was first drawn. The bill will be introduced in the senate by Senator Chase, of Coos County, and in the house at the same time by Hon. L. E. Bean of Lane county. It is thought that it will be passed by the legislature, quickly, as there are so many places along the coast that want a law of this kind, and it will not in any way interfere with those places that do not wish to take advantage of its provision.- News.

Jcnkusa, Prop. pricaw a Washington, Jan. «8—Walter Lyon, secretary of the Marshfield, Ore., Chamber of Commerce, is here to urge an appropriation for Coos Bay. He has presented to the rivers and harbors committee, among other matters, a statement by Wil liam H. HolabirdtoE. H Harriman whom Harriman sent to look over the ground and report on the traffic possibilities of a branch road from Drain to Coos Bay. Holabird was highly optimistic, saying: “Th • harbor is one of the best on the coast. When the channel is deepen ed by lengthening the jetty it will have thirty feet of water at even high tide.” Holabird’s repoit was given to Lyon by Harriman on Lyon’s ur gent request. Holabird really paints a highly colored picture of the won derful resources along the line from Drain to Coos Bay, mentioning the cedar and fir as the “best on earth.,’ He says coal underlies 1,500 square miles, “one acre of which is equal to 18,750 cords of wood.” * *The country is too rich in na tural resources to be kept down,” Holabird says. The fact that Harriman gave out the Holabird report, is accepted by many here as meaning that he purposes building and that Harri man now believes the road would pay interest on $5,000,000, which he said to the Marshfield people would warrant him in constructing it.

Its Various Uses Sat Forth by a Man Who Work» Behind Ona. Shut Him Up. The owner of a few houses in one of London’s poverty stricken streets had difficulty at times in getting his rents in or tenants out. One Mon day morning he called at a house where the tenant was a bit behind and, as usual, had to swallow the old, old story of “only just started work.” In the afternoon the prop erty owner went to see a big cricket match between two prominent clubs, and who should he meet on the ground but his backward tenant. “What’s the meaning of this?” «aid the irate landlord. “You can’t nay your rent, and yet you can af ford to attend cricket matches.” 1 couldn’t ’ave come at all,” was the cool reply, “if I ’adn’t «old the beok door for firewood I”—London Scrap» Ot^ Do You Bowl? “The office railing,” said an of fice man, “is, to be sure, intended primarily to keep people out.

After the duel Martha, who ruah- ed in at the head of the crowd, raised Valentine’s head and held him in her arms during the first part of the scene and cried out in evident alarm: “Oh, what shall I do?” There was a deathlike stillness in the house, which was interrupted by a voice from the gallery calling out: “Unbutton his weskitl” Dr. H.
